Wayne Gretzky Trivia FAIL (Pics)

Someone really dropped the ball on this one. I sure hope there wasn’t some great prize on the line, like a car or $1,000,000. After all, how could someone get such a question wrong? The answer has to be 800 games, doesn’t it? I mean, I know Gretzky was a magician on the ice, but not even his magical skills could allow him to play 800 games in any amount other than 800 games, right?

Wrong!

For those still confused, this question appeared on the screen during Versus broadcast of the Los Angeles Kings-Detroit Red Wings game last night, and we are pretty sure the question they meant to ask was, “How many games did it take Wayne Gretzky to reach 800 goals?”

Unfortunately, the people at Versus were unable to make the correction, and we can only hope that no one was dumb enough to come up with “1,116 games” as their answer.
